This wing was recently sold on eBay. The auction closed at $227 with 5 different bidders. The seller's description: WW2/II US Army CHAPLIN paratrooper jump wings BRITISH made w/COMBAT JUMP STAR.   Front does not look British made. Back has a small mark - looks like a flower. Reversed hinge and catch. This is clearly a fake, isn't it, or am I missing something?  

Hickock didn't make any liners, and they never intended to.  Their plan was to sub out the manufacture of the liner shells, while they would install the webbing and paint them.  Their subcontractor made a pricing error, and Hickock released them from their contract. They looked into the possibility of sourcing shells from Westinghouse, but the freight and packaging costs would have led to significant financial losses for Hickock, and they requested the cancellation of their contract.

I don't know. It has me puzzled. Are there images somewhere of Japanese copies?

A real old timer on the HQ Troop 12th Cavalry Trooper, and a Private to boot still.

They are, Type 96 rounds.  Very lucky find I think.  The projectile is a British 6 pounder AP round.

25 cal, 6.35mm  

I don't own one to compare it to, but could it be one of the Made in Japan copies?

This packboard is held in the collections of the York County History Center:                                                                                                        Courtesy of York County History Center The packboard has no manufacturer's marking at the top. Not so unusual by itself, but the billet strap loops are box stitched, something I've not seen before. Also, the lacing cords are long and have overcast stitching on the ends.                                                                                                                                      Courtesy of YCHC The rivets that are securing the lashing hooks are unusual. Normally we find truss head rivets, with the head facing outwards. Also, the shoulder straps are riveted through the back of the packboard, and again, this is something I've not seen before.                                                                                                                                         Courtesy of YCHC The edges of the frame are non-scalloped, indicative of somewhat early production.   Bailey Lozanoff, Director of Collections, YCHC, was kind enough to search for any documentation associated with this packboard. Unfortunately, there is none. In the first image, the marking "FIC" stands for Found in Collection, meaning it was found with no identification number or donor information.        

Are those Japanese anti-aircraft rounds?....Is the projectile w/o the drive band a 75mm?.....Bodes
